Lift Off!

Tooth&Clawr Artist Reading Group Banner

Tooth&Clawr I

Tooth&Clawr II

4th March 2012, Chapter Arts Centre.A group of people coming together to actively engage. Huddled around a table in a public meeting space, the group begin their study, sinking their teeth into literature, art and debate. Picking apart. Dissecting. Re(a)d in tooth and claw.

Tooth&Clawr would like to thank all those that attended the first session (of many!) of this unique reading group, which has been set up to promote engagement with Chapter Galleries exhibition programme.

The level of discussion was exhilarating. People comfortably sharing ideas on the chosen texts and art works, bouncing off one another, listening to each other. Reading collectively.

We are very excited at the prospect of hosting the next Tooth&Clawr, which will centre on The Institute of Critical Zoologists, an exhibition of work by artist Renhui Zhao and guest curated by Lauren Jury and Helen Warbuton for Chapter Gallery.
